Campers will learn about the connection between digital and real-world environments. They will explore how these real-world environments inspire game designers to create biomes in games. Using the Minecraft Education Edition, campers will work together to create settlements in one of the many biomes Minecraft has to offer and learn about those same biomes in the real world! Toward the end of the week, the campers will put their builds to the ultimate test and defend their settlements from invasions.

Join us for a marine and environmental education-based learning experience!  This camp provides a platform that enables youths to gain both an appreciation for and an understanding of their local marine environments. Our hands-on, feet-wet methodology introduces campers to real-life scientific experiments, methods, and practices. The week consists of a mixture of dynamic activities that may include but not be limited to hands-on field sampling, interactive games, scientific demonstrations, experiments, and dissections. Specific activities include water quality sampling and testing, seining, sieving, plant and animal identification, and environmental awareness. 

The outdoors becomes the classroom for this camp. The camp will start and end their day on the Key Campus, but a large part of the camp day will take place two blocks from campus at Key School’s beach field with visits to the Hillsmere beachfront. The camp is led by degreed scientists who are CPR and First Aid certified. While campers will not be getting into the water above the knee, they should wear a swimsuit or clothes that can get wet each day. Campers should also bring a towel and wear a shoe with a closed back that can get wet (a water shoe or old sneakers are great options).

NEW for 2023! Buckle up for the ride of your life as campers transform plain old plywood into gravity-powered cars! In this program, campers learn and expand upon woodworking knowledge to create a 52” cart that is ready to race by Friday. While there is only one Grand Champion, everyone walks away from this track as a winner with their own gravity-powered car, designed and built by their own hands. Ready to race? Let’s build! Campers participating in the race on Friday are required to bring a bicycle helmet. Racing is subject to weather and campus conditions. All cars need to be taken home at the end of the day on Friday.

What do you call a piece of wood with nothing to do? Board! Not at this camp! Have fun while learning the practical and timeless craft of woodworking. Your child will use traditional hand tools to create a range of projects, from toolboxes to small pieces of furniture that can be put to use. This camp is where every child learns to use their hands in a constructive and fun way. Hey—have you heard the “under construction” joke? It’s not done yet. Because all that’s missing is you.

CIT is for enthusiastic, energetic 14 and 15-year-olds who enjoy working with children and want to develop the skills needed to become successful camp counselors. This 2-week program is a structured learning experience that focuses on safety, leadership, and responsibility. During the first week, discussion-based and role-playing activities will emphasize team-building, problem-solving, and becoming good role models. Part of each day will be spent observing and assisting a counselor team with their group of campers. CPR/First Aid certification training will also be provided. The second week of the CIT program will be assigned based on the participant's availability between the weeks of July 10 and July 31. During this week, CIT’s are placed in a specific camp by Camp Directors where they will gain more hands-on experience and continue to develop skills learned in the first week. In addition, CIT’s may assist with lunch supervision in our cafeteria and help one afternoon in our After Care Program so they can experience other aspects of an assistant counselor’s job duties.

Due to limited space and in the spirit of fairness, a lottery will be conducted on March 1 to determine the 2023 participants in the CIT program. To enter the lottery, interested applicants should register online before 10am on March 1. The first twelve names selected through the lottery will be offered spots.
